2 New Jersey commuter buses collide, killing 1, injuring 18
Two commuter buses reportedy slammed into each other in the heart of Newark, New Jersey's largest city, on Friday morning, killing one of the drivers and injuring 18 people, seven of them critically.
The person killed was the driver of a New Jersey Transit bus that had no passengers when it slammed into the side of another NJ Transit bus carrying about 20 passengers at around 6 am.
Investigators were trying to determine if the driver who died ran a red light, Baraka said. The intersection was the first in the state, in 2009, to feature a surveillance camera designed to catch people running red lights. Then-Mayor Cory Booker conducted a demonstration in which he purposely rode through a red light.
